The Island Near the end of 2013, I spent a few days by myself on an island in the North Sea. I had to take some time to reflect, think over the past year and look forward to the future. I wandered around alone on a cold, dark island, but when I started to look […]
So I finally saw Interstellar. And as I feared, I was very disappointed. Not sure what I expected, but I know what I hoped for. Because of all the hype around “the science” and scientists involved I thought it was going to be about the physics of going through a wormhole, about exploring different worlds […]

Exhibition Two months have passed since my last blogpost and the exhibition in Times Square. Thank you again for helping me choose which pictures should go up! I’m happy to say that things haven’t slowed down in the meantime. In fact, a lot has happened since then. Let me catch you up. My photography work […]
Patience Last year I traded in my 100mm 2.0 lens for a 100mm 2.8 macro lens, because I wanted the ability to get very close to my subject while filming. I hadn’t really thought much of using the lens for macro photography. I always thought of macro photography as a niche occupied by very patient, very […]
Update: We have a winner! And these are the photos that are going to be exhibited in New York: Times Square I just heard today that three of my photos will be displayed in a Times Square exhibition, in NYC on July 24th. If I understand the info correctly each photo will be […]
I added two new photos today, a portrait and an iPhoto. The portrait is a photo of a woman. I’ve deliberately kept it a very dark, dreamy image, because I really like how it disguises her, but not her beauty. The highlights on her cheekbones and her nose give her a very youthful look. Her hair, barely […]
A couple of months ago I was in London. While there I took a stroll through Greenwich Park. It was a very nice day, the sun was out and the clouds drifted by lazily. I had my camera with me and I tried to capture the mood I was in, walking there by myself. It […]
Flowers The picture of the flowers above, I took back in April, when I was over in London for a visit. I saw them basking in the sun and couldn’t resist. I normally don’t go for pictures of flowers, but in this instance, I thought I’d make an exception. I like the colors. New projects Today is […]
